PixelView PlayTV SBTVD not listed in Device Selection

Postby isdbstudent » 21 May 2010 20:40

Hi!
I have a PixelView PlayTV SBTVD (digital tv) and I would like to use VLC, but the tv card is not in the list (even if I click refresh list). I use windows xp, and I know that the tuner works in VLC for linux. The question is: I'm missing some configuration steps or maybe the card has no DirectShow support?

Thanks in advance!

If it is DVB or ATSC device, you have to use DVB DirectShow option.
